New Campus - Love & Truth Cordova, TN

[Sherri]

Well, we're excited! A church in Cordova just became a part of Love & Truth Ministries. It is a suburb of Memphis, I guess you would call it. The pastor Jimmy Greer has been there for 41 years and is wanting to retire, so about 3-4 weeks ago, he got in touch with Eddie and wanted us to acquire the church. They voted officially this morning, and it was unanimous. Eddie & I had met with the whole church last Sunday night to let them ask questions, and they ask a lot.

Eddie has known the Greer's all of his life (ex-UPC). It will be a good corporate move, for us and them. There is a ton of potential in that area - 10,000 new homes around where they built the church 9 years ago!!

The exciting part, but a little overwhelming too, is that now we will do three services in Jackson weekly, one in Savannah and two in Memphis, beginning sometime in October. It's a good thing I like to hear Eddie preach!!! We also have churches in Henderson TN, Corinth MS, and an affiliate work in Lexington TN. Eddie will preach at all of them at certain times during the year, but for now we will focus on these three.

Thanks!! It will probably be a good thing for me. Zac and Jake are moving out Tuesday and I won't have time to feel the "Empty Nester" syndrome since our lives will be so crazy-hectic!

How does the process work for you guys? Do you eventually appoint another pastor to that specific work, or do you run yourself crazy trying to do it all indefinitely? Sounds hectic!

Eventually, we will again (hopefully) pastor one church and have the others all turned over to other pastors. We are in the process of finding a campus pastor for Savannah, but for now, we will continue to go there. Jackson is the home base. The main reason we will go to Memphis twice a week right now is because they are totally new to us and they need to hear Eddie's vision and his voice. It's a crazy life, but we love it!!

I know this is controversial, but Eddie definitely has the calling of an apostle, more than any of the other fivefold ministry. He thrives on this stuff!! He loves a new challenge for the Kingdom.

I have always loved and respected the Greers. Carlene Greer taught me so much about music and singing and worshiping in song. The Greers were dear friends of ours as we all went to TN Camps together and I would love to see them again. I sometimes will read up on them at their website. Would love to catch up with the daughters and families. God bless you in this endeavor!

Eddie knew the girls from childhood, as well as Carolyn Hensley who has always attended there. They laughed at him for calling them "girls" because they are our age and a little older.
